Yeah right. You try that with a growing business. Then when you finally
get enough users and corporate customers to 'justify' your own 64block and
then give them the news that their entire networks will now need to be
reconfigured how do you think they'll react. If I was that big, the amount
of money it would cost me and my end-users would not be trivial.
